- Modalis Therapeutics presented supportive preclinical data of MDL-101 in the preprinted paper “Efficient and durable gene activation by Cas9-mediated epigenome editing in vivo” on bioRxiv, to treat LAMA2-CMD
- In the preclinical study, a single dose of MDL-101 using MYOAAV (an AAV vector) elevated LAMA1 in skeletal muscles for 12 mos., improved muscle pathophysiology, prolonged lifespan, and increased body weight of dyW mouse
